Steve Bruce finally has some good news at Newcastle United

The striker was forced off during Saturday’s 3-1 defeat to Norwich City at Carrow Road with a hip problem.

It was feared that Joelinton, signed from Hoffenheim in a £40million deal this summer, would miss Saturday’s game away to Tottenham Hotspur.

However, the Daily Telegraph report that the 22-year-old has not suffered a serious injury.

And Joelinton is expected to be fit for the weekend’s game against Mauricio Pochettino’s side.
